This is a political forum that is non-biased/non-partisan and treats every persons position on topics equally. This debate forum is not aligned to any political party. In today's politics, many ideas are split between and even within all the political parties. Often we find ourselves agreeing on one platform but some topics break our mold. We are here to discuss them in a civil political debate. If this is your first visit to our political forums, be sure to check out the FAQ and RULES.

Thank you for the "like". I forgot to add that the incumbent has much more "free" access to this public data as well. They may "direct" gov't employees to use gov't computers and time to provide these lists for "official" mailing use "only", but "accidentally" deliver (leak?) this data to outside PACs or campaign staff for "altenate" use. ;-)

Words have become so loaded from their use in the "framing" of "messages" that simply using the words themselves often results in a total cognitive shutdown by the hearer. This actually reinforces their beliefs, regardless of the content of the argument containing the loaded words.

Therefore, I feel it is appropriate to coin new terms where this phenomenon interferes with rational discussion.
